That way, you can share the cross-gdb without installing a toolchain on every machine that will be used to debug target programs. config GDB_CROSS_PYTHON bool prompt "Enable python scripting" depends on CONFIGURE_has_python depends on ! GDB_CROSS_STATIC default y help Say 'y' if you want to use Python scripting inside gdb. Say 'n' if you do not want to. Beware that enabling Python scripting could render the gdb executable non-functional if you move it to another machine. Building a static gdb can help in this regard, although there have been reports of problems when linking gdb to the static libpython.a. This should be fixed in gdb >=7.3. YMMV. endif # GDB_CROSS
